"Arlong," Buggy gasped, "how is that possible...you shouldn't be here!"

Luffy backed up, "Buggy..... he was strong before, but now he's one of the infected, he's going to be unbeatable."

"We might not be able to beat him, kid, but we can protect the others from him. He isn't going to ruin the prophecy!!"

Sarah screamed trying to push him as Arlong tried to bite her, "PAPA!!! BUGGY!!! Someone help!!!!"

Buggy rushed at Arlong with a metal pipe he found and whacked Arlong on his head multiple times. Arlong finally got off of her and charged at Buggy. Mr Gold then rushed in and whacked him with his cane. Arlong jumped at Mr Gold and they both plunged to the waters.

Sarah saw this and screamed. "PAPA!!!!"

Luffy was about to jump in to save him, but Buggy grabbed him. "NO! You can't swim, remember, kid!?"

Oracle noticed this and gave the controls to Eisenhower and jumped in the water.

"But he could shut down!" Harry panicked.

But of course Oracle was waterproof. He dove in as Gold hit at Arlong with his cane. Suddenly he screamed out in pain feeling Arlong's teeth sink on his side.

Oracle punched Arlong knocking him out and brought Mr Gold back to the surface. Once they got on board, Sarah ran to her father. He was set down on the floor. "Papa!? Papa!!!"

"Oracle, is he...," Luffy couldn't finish it.

"Health: 68%...his health is decreasing...," Oracle replied.

Sarah was shaking and tearing up.

"...he is infected...but he is pushing it somehow...," Oracle continued, "If he continues to push it, he may last for a week...or two..."

Sarah teared up and held her father's hand, "Papa, please fight it. Please fight it, Papa." Sarah cried.

After awhile...Sarah stayed by Mr Gold and watched over him. She was so hurt. "You have my word, Papa...I won't ever hurt you...even if I have to...I won't..."
